"They're going to raffle."
"The raffle?
I lean my neck to Rayce's words.
The location is in the courtyard of the Inn where Leis and the others are staying.
It is an inn catering to various races and consists of four buildings. Although the building is divided by its physique and lifestyle, it can rendezvous in a vast courtyard.
Four people, other than Mr. Melania, sit around one table. The tables and chairs are made of wood.
Mr. Melania, half-cyclops, had succumbed nearby.
Daytime period. Our table is shaded in the shadow of Mr. Melania. I feel somewhat cool.
"Yes, yes. I've come to talk about deciding on a second stage combination by lottery."
"Oh, I see. So the raffle."
When I snorted, Yosu-kun said it with a face that reminded me of something.
"In sports and such, it's an occasional sight to see"
"Really?
I didn't know because I'm not very familiar with anything other than adventurer activity.
Mr. Melania also speaks out in a way that impresses him as "ho."
Fran has a blurry view of the trees planted in the courtyard. I can even remember that illusion, where even the leaking days of the tree are paralysed and the pattern is altered as the leaves of the tree swing.
"Yos is right, they're going to deliver this on the computer, like that one in the sport."
I see. You mean to attract public interest from the stage of presentation of the combination?
"So, at the very least, I have to attend only the leaders, but it's not like I can go to the whole party."
"Gathering a hundred parties in one place just to get the lottery to pull is certainly going to be a lot of difficulty"
"By the way, the raffle venue is this city"
Hundred parties are divided into four groups in the lottery.
Tournaments are held for each group, and only the apex of each group moves on to the final third stage.
In other words, only a total of twenty four-party people can fight legends.
We are now in a city with the Castle of the Unattackable Demon King.
After the raffle, he said, he would head to the city where there was a Demon King's Castle, east, west and north, for each group.
Yes, the tournament takes place on a special stage set up within each Demon King's Castle.
The final stage, of course, is in "The Demon King's Castle of Difficult Attack."
The ideologically opposed Mr. Fellow and the Demon King, but the point is that if it is a place to welcome a master, you can't say no?
"For once, I think it'll take me a while to get there if someone doesn't show up."
"Getting lost, absolutely"
Mr. Fran shifted his gaze from the tree leak date to Lace-kun and assured him.
"Someday we'll get there."
"I'm coming with you. Don't let Reis get lost."
"Yes, yes, I thought you'd say that."
Leis and Fran, it's the air that these two shouldn't be disturbed.
If this is a promise to go out or something, I'm about to read the air, but if it's a valuable opportunity to see the fierce who have moved on to the second stage, I can't miss it.
"I'm coming too."
Next, Yosu-kun and Melania are going as well.
Eventually, we all headed to the raffle.
And that day.
The venue is a different dungeon from the Demon King's Castle.
There are two dungeons in this city.
One goes without saying, "Castle of the Unattackable Demon King". The offensive difficulty is the best in the industry.
The other is' Intermediate/Traveling Dungeons'.
This dungeon's offensive footage is not up on the computer (online) at all.
It is a special dungeon run in partnership with a training institution (school) to train and test students.
There are very few dungeons that can be simulated, bringing together adventurer trainees from training institutions (schools) across the country.
Those who break through this dungeon leave the city to explore the world and eventually go for this city again.
To attack the highest difficulty dungeons, standing in the city of travel.
I don't go to a training agency (school), so I'm not aware of that.
I hear Phoenix and Aruba have been there, and I missed it when attacking Demon King's Castle.
Forget it.
"Intermediate/Traveling Dungeons".
Huge chunks of rock sit all over the city, where empty holes enter. If you continue mid-way, a spiral staircase leads to the basement.
Beyond this unusual feeling, there is a door, and beyond that, it becomes an acceptance.
- of, but that's for regular visitors.
This time we use it differently.
Hundreds of parties come together, so you can't just use the back entrance for staff. If you try to collect it at the same time, it will be crowded, and if you let it fall apart, the first party you come to will be waited for quite some time.
Therefore, it was the turn of the recording stone for metastasis.
Place a transfer recording stone connected to the dungeon core at the facility rented by the festival's management committee.
This will transfer them from their respective facilities to the lottery venue in the dungeon.
The facilities designated for the meeting point are also located at five combined back doors.
Up to twenty parties per place - not everyone will come together - then judging it as acceptable?
On that day, as we proceeded along the designated route, we understood Mr. Fellow's purpose.
"Uh, here's the thing. He sounds like your uncle."
Rayce is laughing. Laughing, waving (,,,,,).
"Reiskoon!
"Oh, that's [the lake brave]? It's smaller than I saw in the video. Cute ~"
"Oh, I laughed. Wow... Genius from facial shaping... level of death with a smile..."
The yellow voice goes up.
If you are not waiting to leave, you are waiting to enter.
Proceeding somewhat along the route as instructed, it emerged.
Barricades are set up to keep the public out of the way of the athletes' progress.
And naturally, the general public was gathered to see the second-stage entrants sloppily.
- I see, you might meet a second-stage progressor... Did you leak any information like that from somewhere?
Instead, I guess I leaked it on purpose. This is also to boost the All-Heaven Festival competition.
Sounds like Mr. Fellow indeed.
"Haha. Thank you for your support, ladies."
Rayce is waving some kind of sparkling grin.
Kah, what a voice increased in height and size.
With that, Fran gripped enough to clasp his right suspicious arm...... I felt it.
"That's Fran. Rayce and I are childhood friends."
"Or cute...... I thought the doll was moving"
What a voice, Mr. Fran is unresponsive.
"Because Fran. Some of you do."
When Reis says happily, Mr. Fran's eyebrows move with prickliness.
"... nothing"
Very difficult to understand, but anger seems to have shriveled.
From somewhere else, there's a voice like this.
"That white-haired guy... awesome beautiful guy..."
"Oh, [White Devil Mentor] Yos. She's beautiful."
"What, are you a woman?
"I don't know."
Did Yosu-kun hear that conversation, he's smiling bitterly with a subtle face?
"It's a man...... Do I look like such a woman?
In the original dungeon exploration, I couldn't say much either because I didn't know which one was critical.
"Giant girl... not bigger than I thought, huh?
"No, you're old...... But is that it, because it's half?
"I have big eyes too...... I envy you"
"Because that's cyclops... but I know..."
Yes, I didn't dare touch it from myself, but this lace party, with the exception of one, is superior in appearance.
Of course, the only exception is me.
"Who's that whole black guy?
"Hmm? Hmm, you're from [Black Demon Instructor], right? They say it's amazing on video boards."
"Yes, yes. He said in an interview that Aerial or something wants to fight, and qualify? But you did something amazing, didn't you?
The information is fluffy.
"And you're ex-Phenipa, right? You're superb, aren't you?
"Heh.... Oh, you may have heard of that. He said Aruba kicked him out. If you're such an amazing person, why did you kick him out?
"... because it's... plain? I don't really need [Black Demon Instructor] or anything."
"There aren't many parties I'm letting in. Then why did you let Reis in?
"So that's because you're super good. What is it?
"What, is that meritocracy? Cool ~"
As in the Phoenix party days, it's been decreasing here for all the criticism to fly.
Of course, there's no such thing as a sudden change in the world's appreciation of [Black Demon Instructor], and there are still a lot of people who are skeptical of my prowess.
But there are definitely things that have changed.
It's a little sad that you haven't remembered your name, but there are so many adventurers out there that you can't help it.
I'm just going to do my best to be a memorable being.
Going a little further, I hear something noisy coming from the front.
Carried by the wind, with cheer it came down.
"... snow"
Mr. Fran groaned pompously.
Even though it is not that time of year, Xuehua is dancing.
The answer is simple, magical.
"Aunt Snow."
Rayce says that.
Calling # 6 [Snow White Brave] in the world an aunt...... no, do you actually know him in his case?
[Invincible Brave] Reis, who has Altreet in his father, also calls him Uncle about Mr. Aerial. If you are the self of your father, no wonder you call it that.
"[Snow White Brave] and you know each other?
To Yosu-kun's question, Reisu-kun nodded.
"I've been home a couple of times. We have autograph books."
"Writer Snow's Signature Book!?
Yosu-kun shouts out loud.
"Uh, yeah. What, are you a fan?
"Yes, no... well, I read it a lot when I was young"
Yosu-kun affirms with a slightly reddened face while coughing.
"Heh. Then I'll ask for your autograph later."
"Huh!?
"Writer... Shh?
From a little high, Mr. Melania's voice.
"Oh, [Snow White Brave] Mr. Snow is also a picture book writer. The" Yukiboya of Fuyunokuri "series is particularly famous. My hometown was rural and I didn't have a bookstore, but I had two at Phoenix's house, and when I was a little girl, I read them."
A snowman boy born at one point in a land with nothing but snow. I hear the voice of God in a snowman who weeps that one misses him. In this country, like you, life resides in what is shaped by snow.
The boy works hard to make friends with the snow.
It could have been a snowman, a four-legged creature he created in his imagination, or a flying creature.
He was a boy in the hands of a fun life full of friends, but some of his friends showed up with bad hearts...
It feels like a story.
"I see."
Interestingly, Mr. Melania nods.
Mr. Snow is about half past thirty, but he's a beautiful woman with a face that left him somewhere to be young.
This is what happens when a teenage girl grows up without touching the dirt of the world, a woman who wraps up such a strange atmosphere.
The way she talks like the characters in the story is also uncomfortable when she does.
Beautiful long hair with scattered snow crystals and clear blue eyes.
He looks cold and always looks warm dressed.
"Yukiboya -" "There's also Snowone -" "Eh, why the itch!? In enemies!?
Which comes first, I wonder, is an adventurer. The publication of the picture book should be later.
She made a pact with the Spirit of Water. Gained the power of "Operation of Snow". And he created all sorts of creatures out of snow and manipulated them to fight demons.
In the dungeon offense, which is an entertainment, that battle, which is visually pleasing, was greatly awkward for the young children.
It also added to the exuberance of the picture books there, and parents with many children and children were fascinated by [the brave] Snow.
Now, with her, the characters in the story are walking through reality.
If you've read that picture book before, there's no way it won't get any better.
That's when Mr. Snow, who looked back, saw Rayce. Smile gently and raise your hands slightly.
Rayce said blushing as she waved back.
"Do we do something, too? I can get out a water dragon or something."
"Ugh. I know you have fan service like that, but I don't think it's something I'd do to counter it."
"Oh, so is that."
With that said, Rayce turned her gaze and winked at the female fan who called her name.
The woman holds her chest and kneels, trembling with joy.
"You can't do this to Snowflake."
"... haha"
Terrible boy, really in many ways.
